Sweet and spicy tofu tacos - what more could you ask for!
This is one of my all time favourite recipes, one that I make almost every week. If you are someone who has never tried tofu, this is a great recipe to start with as it is super simple!
These are completely customizable tofu tacos - this recipe just includes the tofu recipe, what toppings you choose to make your tacos are up to you!
For my toppings I decided to use:
- shredded carrot
- shredded red cabbage
- radish
- green onion
- cilantro
- sriracha mayo
This tofu recipe can also be used in rice bowls or lettuce cups! This is a good staple recipe to have on hand whenever you are wanting to have some tofu for dinner!

Asian seasonings in a taco?
I will substitute Mexican flavor because if it ain't broke don't fix it!
